The author considers the problem for which groups \(G\) there exists a \(1\)-factorization of the complete graph admitting \(G\) as a sharply-vertex-transitive automorphism group. He settles the problem for abelian groups by proving that any abelian group of even order that is not a cyclic 2-group is a solution of this problem. This way he extends a result by \textit{A. Hartman} and \textit{A. Rosa} [Eur. J. Comb. 6, 45-48 (1985; Zbl 0624.05051)].
